I didn't say anything negative about 3D World Magazine. I said I'd never read it and wasn't likely to. I don't suppose anyone here has had a dream and then had someone smash all over the top of it. But for a long time, I've wanted to be a writer and see my name in print. It's an ego boost, I know, and totally selfish, but that's all I wanted. I know what I write isn't commercial quality. I just wanted to have a little chance. And Renderosity gave me that chance. And allowed me to include photos of my animals....silly thing, but two of my babies died this year and it was nice to have a memorial for them. My Sally was 14, my Lou was only 5, but I will remember them with a smile and a tear everytime I look at the magazine. That was worth more than any payment would have. I've never been in it for the money. I've got a job...it pays me well enough. All I wanted to was to be able to enjoy one small moment in time without someone running over my dream with a truck. Renderosity gave me the opportunity to work on a magazine that I thought I'd never have the ability to do. And the greatest compliment was to be invited to work on a new project that would be something the community could really be proud of. And Renderosity has allowed me to meet some truly fabulous, and generous spirited people with whom I am proud to have made acquaintance. It would be nice if people gave the project a chance and took the opportunity to participate in a meaningful way if they really have an interest in it. Because it might be something to be proud of if given a chance. My greatest thanks to the people who have written in to say that they are eager to see the new product. My greatest thanks to those who are willing to give it a chance. For everyone, my sincere wishes that whatever you give, you receive threefold back in return. Happy holidays and my greatest hope that the new year can bring some good news for a change.
